Wolverine's Heritage Line...

If you order from Neiman Marcus make sure you go to retailmenot.com first, click on the NMSHIP code which will open the Neiman Marcus web page and apply the free shipping coupon automatically. I did it in reverse, went through checkout then applied the code and it rejected it. I had to start over and re-enter all the info after going through retailmenot.

Still had to pay tax - that sux.

$325 is a rip.

Cranes said that he told his W rep about it...seems rather uncool to us if that is the case.

******* wonderful...

For $170 i was going to give these a shot, bulbous toe and all in black, but now at $325, hell no.

I'm having a hard time choosing between the montgomery and the burton, they both look pretty sweet... arghh

Not sure which size to go for either.

For those of you that have gotten your 1000 mile, how do they run? If i normally wear an 8.5-9 shoe and a uk7/eu41/us8 boot???

No uncool is having your entire inventory stock canceled and being told your pre orders may be also over a 25 buck discount because these boots are to be sold for no less than MSRP. This was done to us without warning and contradicts Wolverine's long standing policy of not setting any kind of price policy.

I agree there. This does suck for you and you are not a rat.

Although, I did place my order yesterday for them in Brown and I wonder if they will still honor my order.

Vernon-Dozier · Sep 2, 2009

Yea Crane's just stuck it right back at Wolverine. Those boots would've been flying if Pappas kept that $170 price. Nobody is going to buy that bulby **** now for $325 when you can get a brand new pair of Redwing GT's on ebay for $150. Won't be long before the Wolverine rep calls up Crane's and says "Ok we'll sell them to you now." And Crane's being the good businessmen they are will tell them to **** off unless they can set their own price point. It sucks for anyone that wants a pair now, but if I were Crane's I would've done the same thing.

At one time I was considering the 1000 Mile Boot but after hearing about Wolverine's treatment of Crane's and their general lack of tact - seriously, what moron is running their wholesale/web presence - I will not even consider them on sale. Not to mention the fact I've been following this thread for a while and the boots are hardly anywhere to be found - do they even want to sell their ******* boots?

Agree wholeheartedly. Not to mention, Wolverine showed up late to the Americana party and is simply trying to cash in (not that there is anything wrong with that, I suppose). Overpriced boot + ****** business practices = no sale. I'll keep my Red Wings, thank you very much!

Even at the papashoe price of $170, I still couldn't buy this boot. That bulbous toe just looks horrible. The only reason I haven't bought the Red Wing GT is because of the toe but if I didn't mind it, I would definitely buy them instead of the Wolverines.

Manny Calavera · Sep 3, 2009

Talked to someone at papashoe this morning and it sounded like Wolverine was a little less than cordial to them over all this. Rep didn't say whether they'd be canceling pending orders but said that they would not be selling them at $170, no matter the circumstance, to which I replied, "That's a bummer, because you won't be selling them at $320, either."
